EDITORIAL REVIEW

A chilling work of documented terror, this novel strips away mythology and motive to expose something far more disturbing: how fear reshapes behavior until cruelty becomes routine. Told with procedural restraint and relentless escalation, the story follows a city as it adapts to violence not by solving it, but by accommodating it. What begins as isolated horror hardens into policy, infrastructure, and silence. The result is an unforgettable descent into normalized terror—cold, plausible, and deeply unsettling long after the final page.

THE RITUAL

A True Documented Case of the Monster of Florence

For seventeen years, couples were found executed in the countryside outside Florence, Italy. The crimes were not frenzied. They were not impulsive. They were identical.

The same weapon.
The same approach.
The same post-mortem mutilation.

Time did not alter the method. Investigation did not disrupt it. Arrests failed. Confessions collapsed. Entire task forces came and went while the killings paused—then returned exactly as before.

This is not a story about who committed the murders. It is a record of what happened when violence behaved like a procedure instead of a person. When brutality showed discipline. When repetition replaced motive. When the absence of escalation became the most disturbing fact of all.

Drawn from official records, forensic reports, court proceedings, and decades of failed inquiry, THE RITUAL strips away speculation and psychology to confront the reader with something colder: a pattern that did not learn, did not adapt, and did not need to.

The murders ended without explanation.
The weapon was never recovered.
The ritual was never understood.

And nothing has ever proven it couldn’t begin again.
